Testo Alright - MC Lyte
Testo della canzone Alright (MC Lyte), tratta dall'album 1 of 1
Yeah, it's gonna be all right, man
You know, everything in life has its own course
So just play some time
Can't tell you how many times I erred
I was taught to fail quick and then you flourish
I was bumping my head, yeah, for most of my youth
Disregarded the truth and did what I wanted to
Lessons came hard in between the good days
Don't bite off more than you can chew the hoods say
Some mistakes along the way take 'em with a grain of salt
And I'll take the blame for whatever was my fault
It's funny especially when your mind's on your money
Set things in the past make them wanna come for me
I strive to be better a whole lot of changes
And rearranging to get through the stages of life
If you live long enough you just might
Learn that everything ain't about a fight
Sometimes you just gotta let 'em be right
All right
I'm not saying mama didn't raise no sucker (no sucker)
But I've been crying all my days and nights (days and nights)
I thought I'd have it all together by the summer (by the summer)
And I'm kind of scared about this life
Will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright
(Everything is gonna be alright)
(Everything is gonna be alright)
Yeah, big, big, that's what they told me I would be
So I followed the yellow brick road to the T
They showed me love and asked me for my pub
And I signed on the dotted line for damn near free
Gave my everything trotted me around the globe
Never said no showed up for every single show
From the Jane promoters that didn't have my dough
To the dirty stinking clubs with the weak promo
I put work in now it's like who the hell you jerking?
Young, but I know that this ain't right for certain
It's over taking me for granted curtains
Hold her back the proceeds it ain't working
The dreams keep blowing, but the streams ain't flowing
We looking for the waterfalls, give us what you owe in
Sick of all your theories sticking us with the low-end
Trying to plant seeds, but ain't got enough for the sowing
I'm not saying mama didn't raise no sucker (no sucker)
But I've been crying all my days and nights (days and nights)
I thought I'd have it all together by the summer (by the summer)
And I'm kind of scared about this life
Will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is gonna be alright)
Alright, alright, alright (everything is gonna be alright)
All I wanted was to be a princess
Maybe live for life of success
I'm just a girl with a couple big dreams
And I'm living paycheck to paycheck
I'm sure I'll be fine
Only a matter of time
The work will pay off and I'll get to shine
Until that day, I'll keep going 'til I get what's mine
Mama didn't raise no sucker (no sucker)
But I've been crying all my days and nights (days and nights)
I thought I'd have it all together by the summer (by the summer)
And I'm kind of scared about this life
Will it be all right? (Everything is going to be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is going to be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right? (Everything is going to be alright)
Alright, alright, alright, will it be all right?
I just wanna make it on my own
I'm tired of waving white flag
But I'll find and get up
Every time I get knocked down I'll show up
Regardless of the pain I feel now
I'll grow up and big girls don't fold
I promise mama never let go
Mama ain't raise no sucker
She ain't, no
Mama ain't raise no sucker
Come on
Mama ain't raise no sucker
No, she didn't
She ain't raise no sucker, no way
